what a special treat for non-drum corps people !! for those of us in dc activity we already know what the sights & sounds of corps can do to move people in such a positive way !! the wall of sound does it again !! a sincere thank you to all of the scv organization for making this performance possible !!
As always....and I mean AS ALWAYS....you are an incredible asset to the marching arts here in southern California. Your documentation archives HISTORY....and I am VERY VERY appreciative of it. THANK YOU!
They were really in 'block' formation (the horns)!!! As big as Santa Clara was they should have been spread out more. I marched in a many parades with a smaller corps and we were spread out more. It could have been a regulation by the parade committee. And man, they certainly had a huge contra line!! Certainly just for parade purposes. Wouldn't carry that many in a show. But all in all this is how marching and a corps should look like!!! Professional, at ease and stately for sure. Kudos SCV!!! Much appreciated. ✌🏾
Wow the brass was tight and there was a minimum of dirt in the percussion. Impressive! Maybe DCI should start taking parades more seriously. I'm disappointed in most of the vids of DCI corps in parades. This is where they are seen by a general public that may have no idea what a drum corps is.
Drum majors on banner duty. Colorguard having fun Arrangement written for a 180 member marching band Carry a Thank You banner? Watched SCV since 74 Competed against them in 1980 And had the pleasure of being instructed by Ralph Hardimon This is the new activity extremely talented young people , its time to call the activity something else & DCI / DCA both know its time to call it something else.
It brings me much more joy and pride to see you covering Drum Corps as well on this channel! I looked forward to coming home everyday after a parade to see you upload our competion run!
Could you imagine what it would have been like, had they put two or three Color Pre's together from the late 60s and early 70s? Real, honest to God Gale Royer charts which blew the doors off the drum corps world.
I know that you're busy.... Just wondering if you're going to post a video of these guys at Bandfest ? Thanks again for what I know is a lot of hard work 🌹🎺
Hi, Wen. You're welcome and thank you for positive feedback always. I just posted the SCV Bandfest performance. I still have a few more bands to do. Enjoy :)
It's always so sad to see an amazing Drum Corps stuck marching a parade. It's like putting a Kentucky Derby champion in a parade but only after loading him down like a pack mule and tying his legs together.
They’re the Santa Clara Vanguard at a Rose Bowl parade, not the US Marine Band on July 4. (But don’t worry - I think most of the people watching aren’t confused about what country they’re in, despite it not being explicitly labeled for them all the time.)
The arrangements that Santa Clara Vanguard while playing, it's typical of a brass band. A real drum and bugle Corp, would have different Arrangements that would be a lot more exciting. A real drum and bugle Corp would have the Drumline in front, brass bands typically put the drummers in the back. A real drum corpse also would not be hitting so many Rim shots, that's all DCI and DCA bands do today. And they play very very few rudiments. They drum sections today play stuff we would play as a warm-up. Don't take offense to anybody this is just my opinion I've been involved in the activity since the mid-fifties until today but although I don't watch too much today. Former member of the Long Island sunrises. And several other top Junior corpse, when I was under the age of 21.
Old school sling snares for parade. Everybody is cranking tenor drums to sound like bongos and timbale. Boing boing rim shots. Somebody should mix it up and detune the tenor line. Give the drums some balls
it was cool meeting some of them at both bandfest and here, but tbh a couple of them were rude and kind of stuck up about being scv and being here which kind of killed it for me :/

Thank you, Ryan! I really appreciate your comments. You're awesome.
This is a Drum & Bugle Corp, it is 1 of the world class corps
How many tenors were placed on flag duty? lol

*Um evento incrível, grandes Bandas desfilando isso é perfeito, parabéns por compartilhar*
Holy mother of horn snaps!
Besides the horn snaps, I think I was more impressed with their rendition of Bullets & Bayonets; all brass!
Music213 que cancion tocaron? Saludos
Hola Clara. La primera selección musical parece ser una melodía patriótica y la segunda se llama Bullets & Bayonets escrito por John Philip Sousa.
Music213 si. es que la primera se parece mucho a la melodia de un himno antiguo llamado gloria gloria aleluya. no se si me equivoco
It wouldn't be drum corps without a kickass horn snap.
definitivamente esas bandas son perfectas

my thoughts exactly. when they get a chance for exposure, they need to better take advantage of it.
Irony: Vanguard as the rear guard!
Saving best for last, I guess!
30 tubas and one tenor? What madness is this? Did they combine the vanguard Cadets hornline with the regular corps?
ooohh yes thx boosss. best video of SCV at the Rose Parade.
Drum majors on banner duty.

I have been patiently waiting for this one. :) THANK YOU!!!!
You're welcome :)
My favorite forever! VANGUARD!!!!
WHY 30 TUBAS!!🤤

is that scv and the scv cadets? that looks like a lot of people for just scv
I am thinking so.... although the drumline seems awfully thin. One tenor and two cymbals?
Im out of the loop here..i guess they dont do electric wheelchair anymore? Since when?
where are the quads tho
Why are there so many contras??😳
Because, to hell with your ears, that's why.
Can BD do this?
I thought the drumline used Dynasties?

WHAT? 30 contras FAT!
why no US flag at the front?

Why can't any corps put some effort into a street performance? At least the color guard brought flags. ha ha
